This is week 0 of #Whisper! If any of you know of the game Telephone, this is a take on that. The beauty of Whisper is that it has no winners, and the excitement of it comes from the creative interpretations.
Steemians, we've got a new trail, and it's Whisper Gallery II!
Whisper Gallery II Seed
In good #whisper fashion, we're starting Whisper Gallery II with the seed which was the ending piece from Whisper Gallery I by @dunsky.
In Whisper Gallery I, this piece by @dunsky was inspired by @storybird's cassette tape art (below).
The artistic innovation that occurred during Whisper Gallery I is absolutely beautiful. It proves that with different artists, we can take one idea and push it into several others with dramatically different inspiration fueling it.
Take a look at Whisper Gallery I Completed!
What is Whisper?
A chain of artistic creations that are each initiated by a seed idea/art piece (one piece of artwork inspires the next piece, and so on). Each week we will have a featured artist who will create a piece that is inspired by the piece from the week before.
The beauty of this trail is seeing this creative interpretation and reinvention take place on a high level.
The Trail
To begin NEXT WEEK!
Helping Build an Art Community
We want to collectively build an art community. This is a great way to connect us, support each other through up-votes, comments, and follows. Steemit can be a slow-growing platform for creatives starting out, and the future goal is to roll this into a community event where people can be perpetually submitting to the chain.
With Whisper Gallery I now behind us, I have found so much gratification in the ability to bring more eyes to artists as well as create a showcase beyond the contest level. Art is often abstract to people, and I think when we're able to tell a collective story in our own styles, it begins to unravel that mystery for some. If our goal is to make more art, more appreciators of art, more supporters of the art community, and more people happy in general, I think we've succeeded. More to come!
Steemians, I encourage everyone to re-steem this post to gain more eyes on the project and allow the artists to get more rewards for their high-quality work. Every comment, upvote, resteem, and follow helps!
Support
Thanks to several community members for the support. I greatly respect and appreciate @sndbox for allowing this to be pushed forward and succeed in the way it did.
